Explained

What it does

A Link-3 of 2+ monsters including a Winged Beast. It can't be Link Material. Your opponent can't target it or Winged Beasts it points to. It can destroy another Simorgh card instead of itself in battle, and in the End Phase it summons a Winged Beast based on unused Spell & Trap Zones.
